P-431 Alpha and Bravo Wharf Improvements

Current Situation:

- Alpha and Bravo wharves are the ideal location for submarine berthing.
- Bravo Wharf is currently only 500 in length and in its current configuration cannot support the SSGN class submarine
- Due to the insufficient length of KILO Wharf and lack of “hotel”services, it is unable to provide proper support for the new SSGN or continued operations for the 688 Class submarine

Project Cost:

- $40-50 Million

2010P-502 Kilo Wharf Extension

Project Scope:

- Extend the existing KILO wharf 121.9 meter (400 ft) including necessary dredging and demolition
- Upgrade electrical service and secondary distribution systems
- Extend shore utilities infrastructure from existing wharf to the new extension
- Provide new fixed rails and support system along entire length of wharf to support a new gantry crane
- Extend fire protection & alarm systems to the new extension

P-502 Kilo Wharf Extension

Current Situation :

- KILO Wharf continues to be a critical facility for the berthing of ordnance supply ships in the western Pacific Region in support of the 5thand 7thFleets as well as Air Force requirements
- KILO Wharf is currently only 121.9 m in length and in its current configuration cannot support containerized ordnance operations and staging
- Due to the insufficient length of KILO Wharf and lack of “hotel”services, it is unable to provide proper support for the new T-AKE vesselKILO

Project Cost:

- •$60-90 Million

StationsP-494 Harden Electrical

Project :

- Replace main base overhead 13.8 KV primary elect distribution system with an underground 13.8 KV system
- Replace overhead secondary electrical service with underground system in concrete encased duct banks
- Upgrade power system with two new transformers, two sets of switchgear, remote switching stations, and underground tie feeders

P-494 Harden Electrical System

Current Situation:

- Frequent severe storms occurs in Guam resulting in downed electrical lines and power poles causing power failures severely affecting mission critical facilities
- The 40 MVA Orotesubstation is inadequate to provide additional electrical loads in support of ships at KILO, ROMEO, SIERRA, TANGO, VICTOR and X-RAY wharves based on the 2010 Berthing Plan
- Lack of isolation switches and long feeder runs result in widespread power outages when short-circuits occur on a primary feeder

- Provide a storage that can accommodate a complete load of a T-AKE ship (TFIL load)
- Eliminate the need to haul a shipload of ammo (3 wks) from KILO wharf to the Ordnance Annex
- Solution: Construct 17 Non-propagation Wall/Earth covered magazines next to KILO Wharf

P-425 Non-Propagation Wall Magazines

Current Situation :

- KILO wharf is the sole point on Guam for all Navy and Air Force ordnance downloads and uploads
- On average, ammo-handling ops are conducted approx 260-270 days each year
- Transport of ordnance from KILO to Ordnance Annex and back for major uploads or downloads takes approx 22 days to complete and utilizes public roads
- Situation above prolongs ammo handling ops at KILO wharf, delays timely delivery to the fleet, increases cost of ammo logistical support, and potentially endangers civilians and personal property

P-436 Dredging Romeo & Sierra

Current Situation:

- ROMEO and SIERRA wharves provide berthing services to Navy ships that visit or homeport in Guam
- Existing depth at the wharves prevents larger ships (i.e., T-AKE & CG-47s) from docking, this reduces the versatility of the wharves in the Inner ApraHarbor
- The ability to berth combatant ships in Guam will increase PACOM’sability to respond to contingencies in the PACOM AOR

- Provide adequate and efficient means of temporarily storing ammunitions
- Need to quickly remove ordnance from KILO and relocate to a location that will reduce public exposure to explosive risks.
- Solution: Construct 8 open ammo pads

P-447 Open Ammo Storage

Current Situation:

- KILO wharf is the sole point on Guam for all Navy and Air Force ordnance downloads and uploads
- Historically, approx 55 ships per year are on-loaded/off-loaded at Kilo wharf. PACFLT ordnance OPTEMPO requires ordnance ships to remain berthed at Kilo wharf for less than 4-5 days per visit
- Many of the ops require only short-term storage, but material must be transported from KILO to the Ordnance Annex (major upload and download) and takes approx 22 days to complete
- Situation above prolongs ammo handling ops at KILO wharf, delays timely delivery to the fleet, increases cost of ammo logistical support, and potentially endangers civilians and personal property

Tango Wharf’s potential to support visiting warships and foreign vessels has not be fully realized. The poor condition of the pier facilities compels Port Ops to berth ships and submarines at the adjacent Sierra Wharf. However, Tango Wharf enjoys the same benefits of force protection, 35 feet depth, and close proximity to Port Control as Sierra Wharf. Restoration of Tango Wharf, will allow Port Ops greater flexibility to berthing visiting warships of all types to Guam.

VICTOR wharf is utilized as the primary wharf for visiting combatant ships, Military Sealift Command, foreign navy vessels, and the Coast Guard. The wharf is also in close proximity to the exchange and commissary facility, providing convenient access to QOL/MWR facilities to visiting ship personnel. Wharf is also used to support small boat operations and is near Port Operations office. Due to the material condition of V-1 through V-3 and unavailability of power throughout the wharf, ships cannot receive optimal berthing support.

SumayCove Marina would be the ideal location to moor small boats and crafts previously moored at the planned for demo Victor Wharf fleet landing. The shorter distance from the boat ramp and calmer water due to location and configuration would enable the government to cut fuel and typhoon preparation cost.

Inadequate living area, visible signs of deterioration, and substandard living conditions create a negative impact on morale and do not comply with QOL criteria. The lack of adequate fire protection system and non-compliant seismic requirements jeopardize government property and safety of building occupants.

Visible signs of deterioration create a negative impact on morale and does not comply with QOL initiatives.Cost to maintain these old facilities will continue to increase. The safety of the sailors and the public is a risk from falling concrete spallsunder the breezeways.

Inadequate living area, visible signs of deterioration, and substandard living conditions create a negative impact on morale and does not comply with QOL criteria. The lack of adequate fire protection system and incompliant seismic requirements jeopardize government property and safety of building occupants.

Uniform Wharf has not been operational for many years due to significant earthquake damage. Restoration of Uniform Wharf will allow Port Ops to berth amphibious ships, frigates, minesweepers, and the yet-to-be-built Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) at the wharf. Uniform Wharf will afford sailors closer access to the NEX and Commissary compared to other wharves (except Victor). Uniform Wharf also provides closer access to Port Control

Inadequate living area, visible signs of deterioration, and substandard living conditions create a negative impact on morale and does not comply with QOL criteria. The lack of adequate fire protection system and incompliant seismic requirements jeopardize government property and safety of building occupants.

Estimated Cost: $4M-$5M

Repairs to Building 206 NCTS NEX

Building 206 is a satellite exchange retail store at Naval Computer and Telecommunications Station (NCTS), which is located approximately 45 minutes from CNM. Facility provides convenient retail services for authorized patrons of the Navy Exchange system at NCTS to include active duty personnel and their dependents, military families at the Finegayanhousing area, retirees, military personnel conducting training at NCTS. Without this facility patrons would have to travel to CNM or Andersen AFB.

The AIS deficiencies repair would be part of an entire “face-lift”for this old and antiquated facility that is also in dire need of attention (facility was built in 1965). The renovation would include adding “brand-name”food operations, new sound, light and video equipment, improved Internet Caféarea, and video arcade. The newly renovated facility would provide a multi-use entertainment option, not currently available to our Sailors & families. This project would improve the facility aesthetics and usefulness, per industry standards, as well as improve the quality of life for Sailors & families on Guam.

Built in 1950, Building 256 is the main furniture and appliance outlet for the Navy families on Guam. Building is not equipped with fire protection or alarm system, threatening lives of patrons and employees. Loss of this facility will force military families to shop on the local economy which is very expensive and does not offer similar quality goods as NEX provides. Building 256 is critical to preserving the quality of life of sailors and their families on Navy Guam.

Building 372 is the only large government automotive repair and maintenance facility on Guam, providing critical services toevery Navy command on the island. The shop is consistently backlogged and has difficulty keeping up with demand because of continued deterioration that force maintenance bays to be closed, reducing the overall production capability of this facility. Safety of personnel is threatened by structural deficiencies. Building will also be used to consolidate remaining maintenance and repair functions currently at various locations on the base,which will compound space availability, if current conditions are not corrected.

Inadequate living area, visible signs of deterioration, and substandard living conditions create a negative impact on morale and does not comply with QOL initiatives. The lack of adequate fire protection system and incompliant seismic requirements jeopardize government property and safety of building occupants.

Bldg. 3202XR functions as a general warehouse primarily used by Defense Commissary Agency & DSCP’sSubsistence Prime Vendor. Continued deterioration and unsafe conditions will adversely impact the provisions mission of MSC ships of frozen & dry supplies in direct support of 5thand 7thfleets operating in the PACOM AOR & the Persian Gulf. This situation directly affects services provided at the commissary and the clubs ultimately impacting QOL for sailors and their families on Guam.
